Through the regular process proposing legislation or other measures to carry out some of the goals so with thats again i want to respect the work that our committee done in response to these amendments. Thank you supervisor tang. Supervisor cohen. Supervisor cohen you have no comment . [inaudible] okay. Thank you. Supervisor avalos. Yes. I actually am fine if we want to continue and if people need more time to look at these. I understand there are many recommendations that are in the resolution and having more time is okay with me.

Supervisor cohen. Great. Thank you very much. Madam president i would like to address my comments to the legislation sponsor. This is good legislation supervisor a
